"Damn it, Lightning Release: Thousand Generations Dance!" Ai roared, leaping from the sky as a large amount of lightning chakra gathered on his arm.
"Boring." Neji glanced at A, who was swooping down, and began to spin around himself. His powerful chakra leaked out and formed a blue barrier that spun rapidly.
A miraculous recovery!
Swoosh! Bang!
The moment Ai's hand made contact with the rain cover, it was unsurprisingly flung away, smashing into a nearby boulder. If it weren't for his superhuman physical strength, he would have been seriously injured.
"Lord Raikage."
"Damn it, let's attack together."
"Kill him!"
A large group of Cloud Ninja roared and were about to rush forward, causing Neji to frown slightly. Just as he was wondering whether he should make an example of them, another angry roar stunned them.
"Stop!" Ai scrambled to his feet from the mound of dirt, shouting angrily, "Are you ignoring what I said? Does the dignified Cloud Hidden Village not even have this much magnanimity? All of you, go back!"
Then he turned around and said to Neji, "I keep my word. You can come and go freely in and out of Kumogakure, but if you do anything to harm Kumogakure, I will eliminate you at all costs."
This was the bet he made during his battle with Neji.
"Hmph! Let's go, Tayuya, Guren." Neji's lips curled up, and halfway there, he suddenly turned to A and said, "As expected, none of the Kage are fools. You saved their lives."
Ai Xinshen was startled, but said nothing and immediately led his men away. However, everyone knew that Neji's name would soon spread throughout the Land of Lightning and even resound throughout the Five Great Nations, simply because he had defeated the Raikage.
"Wow, that's amazing!" Killer Bee exclaimed, now realizing that Neji had held back when they fought earlier.
"Damn it, he's so powerful. That idiot, that bastard."
Just as Killer Bee was complaining, Neji had already arrived in Kumogakure. However, since he entered the village, everyone had been looking at him with unfriendly eyes.
"Tch, what kind of looks are you giving me? Watch out, or I'll dig you out!" Tayuya said viciously.
"Never mind, Tayuya." Neji took her hand. After all, this was Kumogakure, and their attitude towards him was within his expectations.
“More importantly…” Neji glanced around. At this moment, the area was surrounded by Cloud Village ninjas. They might just be missing an excuse.
After calming Tayuya down, the three of them arrived at a relatively remote area. There were only two houses in the vast area, which was the accommodation that Ai had arranged for them.
“This place looks spacious, but it’s actually far from the village center, separate from everyone else,” Neji murmured, looking at another house.
Who else would come here besides them?
Chapter 121 It's time to leave after you've had enough.
Yunlei Gorge is a majestic place with a shimmering lake, steep and rugged rocks, and an extremely high altitude where you can almost touch the clouds with a flick of your hand.
This is an excellent place for training, and it's also where Killer Bee usually stays.
But today was different. Early this morning, Killer Bee walked out of the canyon with a swollen face, saying things like, "I will definitely come back."
At this moment, outside Yunlei Gorge, a beautiful female ninja with short silver hair and dark skin walked towards them carrying files.
She is none other than Mabui, the secretary of the Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure. This female ninja, who did not achieve much in the original story, is now walking on flat ground in the steep canyon, crossing the rock walls and stone steps that would take others half a day to climb in no time.
Boom! Crash!
The series of loud noises coming from the canyon made Mabuyi sigh softly and walk over quickly.
In the canyon, a tall, aloof woman was fiercely fighting Neji. She was wrapped in a chakra cloak, which made her incredibly fast, but Neji didn't even need to activate his Byakugan to make her helpless.
Seeing that Yugito was struggling to control the power of the tailed beast, Neji immediately activated his Byakugan and sealed her chakra points, which allowed her to recover.
Unlike the protagonist Naruto, other Jinchuriki, even if they gain the recognition of the Tailed Beasts, still need constant training to prevent themselves from losing themselves under that power.
“You lasted much longer than before.” Mabui stepped forward and helped Yukito up, saying, “You don’t have to push yourself like this.”
"No, this is an indispensable force for protecting the village," Yugito said weakly.
"Yes, yes, anyway, Neji, thank you." Mabui bowed and smiled softly.
"nothing."
It has been almost nine months since Neji arrived in Kumogakure. During this time, Yukito, his neighbor and monitor, has become very close to him. As a result, even Yukito's two best friends have developed a strong liking for Neji.
Her two best friends are naturally Mabuyi and Samyi.
Correspondingly, Neji also received many rewards from them, including Mabui's Heavenly Gift Technique and Yugito's Rat Tail Ball and Hairy Rat Flame Ball abilities.
"I really don't understand why you would raise an enemy for your own village." Mabui asked, puzzled. The relationship between Kumogakure and Konoha was definitely not friendly.
Neji shook his head and said nothing. He could see further than others. The Fourth Shinobi World War was just a minor skirmish. The enemies that followed were the biggest threat. Therefore, the unification of the ninja world was an inevitable trend. He did this in the hope of having more powerful fighting forces.
"By the way, Mabuyi, how did you end up in Yunlei Gorge?" Yumuren asked.
"It's because a new organization has recently emerged. According to intelligence, they seem to be targeting Jinchuriki from various countries, which is why the Raikage sent me to check on you."
Neji listened without expression, but inwardly he cursed, "They're just making excuses, aren't they? They're just trying to keep an eye on me."
Who could capture Yukito right under his nose?
"Alright, stop complaining. Lord Raikage's three most capable subordinates are all vying for your attention now." Mabui was incredibly perceptive, and after spending the last few months together, she immediately understood Neji's thoughts.
She felt a little annoyed when she thought about it; how could the three of them, beauties, care so much about a kid from another village?
“But Neji, aren’t you leaving?” Yugito suddenly said, “The Raikage gave us a strict order to keep you in the Land of Lightning.”
Neji's strength alarmed Ai, so he ordered all the ninjas in Kumogakure to keep a close eye on Neji. It was one thing to avoid getting his Byakugan, but it was also impossible to let Neji go like that.
"Leave? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"You little brat, you haven't forgotten who you are, have you?"
Neji's nonchalant attitude startled Yugito. Although Neji was very powerful, it was impossible for him to escape under the siege of the entire Hidden Cloud Village. Even if he managed to escape by chance, he would be severely injured and would have a hard time surviving in the ninja world.
What she didn't know was that Neji did indeed have the ability to leave Kumogakure unharmed. Putting aside his perfect Sage Body, just his ability to become a phantom body allowed him to move freely throughout the entire ninja world.
"Given Raikage's personality, he'll mobilize all the Jonin to guard you by tonight at the latest. But this is also an opportunity, Neji. If you want to leave, you have to do it tonight," Mabui said, holding the documents.
"Stop thinking about it, Neji. The longer this goes on, the worse it will be for you. You can't stay here forever," Yugito said, gripping Neji's shoulder.
Uh……
Neji fell silent. After thinking it over carefully, he realized that he had indeed stayed in Kumogakure for too long, and perhaps it was time to leave.
What will happen to you if I leave?
"We are the Raikage's most capable assistants, he won't do anything to us."
“That’s right. I already asked Samui to make preparations before we came here. You’re leaving tonight.”
"Thank you," Neji nodded, speaking sincerely.
Neither of the two women expected that the usually aloof Neji would say such a thing to them, and they couldn't help but smile, but time was of the essence.
"You should say thank you to Samui. She does the most dangerous job, and she has to lie to her brother and subordinates about it."
"Ah, I understand." Neji was touched.
……
As night fell, a rustling sound suddenly broke the silence of the night. Dozens of masked people appeared in the vast but sparsely populated area, hiding in various places, their eyes fixed on one of the houses.
"They arrived so quickly, even the Anbu have been mobilized. It seems A really doesn't trust Yugito and the others," Neji muttered to himself.
"Why don't I just fight them to the death?"
"Ha, are they rushing off to their deaths?"
As expected, Tayuya and Guren started fighting, and Neji, without saying a word, delivered two sharp blows to their heads.
"Be quiet, don't make any rash moves," Neji hissed. He sensed that A was also hidden among them.
Before long, an ANBU ninja received A's order and brought out Yugito and the others. A glared at them resentfully, still unable to understand how his three most capable subordinates could be so infatuated with Neji.
But he didn't notice that a smile flickered across the corner of their mouths as the three turned to leave.
After leaving that area, the three of them gradually changed their appearance, suddenly transforming into Neji, Tayuya, and Guren, and walked out of the village.
"Everything is exactly as Mabui predicted. He truly is a mastermind," Neji exclaimed. After using illusion magic to take down the guards at the village entrance, he made his way away.
Soon after, the Raikage's deafening roar echoed through the village...
Chapter 122 I'll Marry Whoever Saves Me
The Land of Water floats in the open sea, far from the mainland, and consists of islands of varying sizes. Compared to the other four great nations, the Land of Water rarely gets involved in wars.
The Hidden Mist Village within it boasts even more formidable fighting power, with the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist renowned throughout the ninja world.
At this moment, in the thick fog, a small boat floats slowly. Although it is surrounded by fog, the boat moves straight forward, which is amazing.
"Neji, what are you doing in the Land of Water?" Tayuya asked with her hands on her hips and a hostile look on her face. "You're not here to steal someone's heart again, are you?"
Neji said he wanted to broaden his horizons when he went to the Land of Lightning, but he never expected that while broadening his horizons, he would also broaden his romantic horizons. Tayuya thinks that Neji is good in every way, but he is too much of a womanizer.
Seeing Tayuya's intense jealousy, Neji was used to it. He raised his hand and gave her another popcorn pop, the sound ringing out crisply.
"Ouch!" Tayuya squatted down, touching her slightly swollen, smooth forehead, and looked at Neji with a pitiful expression.
Neji glanced sideways and slowly said, "I'm doing this to contribute to the peace of the ninja world and lay a stable foundation for future unification. If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense."
He traveled the world to become stronger, winning the hearts of all sorts of beauties, all to prepare for the great changes to come. Little did he know that in their eyes he was just a... womanizer. Truly, the world is going to the dogs, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be.
Whenever he thought of these things, Neji couldn't help but feel desolate.
"Then what are you doing here?" Duoyu asked, still unwilling to give up.
"I'll meet someone, a ninja of extremely high strength," Neji said calmly, silently wondering if she had become the Fifth Mizukage yet.
No one knows the exact time when Mei Terumi took over, but based on the timeline, it was within the last three years.
Neji would never miss a female ninja who possesses both Boil Release and Lava Release bloodline limits.
The three of them traveled in a small boat and arrived at the port after an unknown amount of time. However, as soon as they stepped ashore, a slightly languid female voice rang in their ears.
"Hmph, it's been years since any Konoha ninjas have come to Kirigakure. Damn it, you've come to the wrong place."
"So, Mei Terumi hasn't taken office yet," Neji thought to himself, then looked around at the foggy surroundings.
Are they using water mist to block the view?
In that case...
